A student-assistant of mine at work showed me this video earlier today after we were talking about some of the kids that come into the sports facility to play pickup basketball. As someone that plays, or even has had my share of playing back in the day, this video literally had me laughing hysterically in my office. The video is entertaining, but is accurate in every way. If you've played pickup basketball, you either know someone that fit these stereotypes, have seen these stereotypes, or are one of these stereotypes. Enjoy!
One of the good aspects about having a blog and being truthful and honest about it, is the hindsight thought process it provides. DP devotees already know how much I love my New York Knicks, and how excited I was about their new jerseys last year. It was a new look that was desperately needed ( DP Review On Knicks New Uniforms ). In reviewing those jerseys last year, I had the following comments in regards to then-rumors regarding the addition of an alternative orange jersey for the Knicks and overall NBA changes to the Christmas Day special jerseys: "As long as we do not add an "alternative jersey" (I read rumors of an orange one - woof!) (and the league-wide Spanish jerseys are fine). And please, please - PLEASE - let's finally do away with the awful green jerseys we feel the need to wear on Christmas and St. Patrick's day! Pretty please!"
